In an unexpected leak, Philips Hue accidentally revealed its upcoming Hue Secure video doorbell through an app update on March 22, 2025. The device, spotted in the Philips Hue app, features a sleek design with a prominent LED circle and is expected to offer 1080p video quality, two-way talk, and end-to-end encryption. While lacking HomeKit Secure Video support, the doorbell is poised to compete in the smart home security market with features like smart alerts for people, pets, and vehicles. Set for a fall 2025 release, the Hue Secure video doorbell signals Philips Hue’s continued expansion into smart home security, building on its reputation for privacy and innovation.
